Direct Enrollment/Exchange is a program provider offering 1869 abroad programs. Programs offered include Study Abroad, Internship, Volunteer, Intensive Language, Gap Year, Graduate Program, High School, Research, Online Program, TEFL Courses, and Adventure Travel abroad programs in 121 countries such as Spain, International Summer Schools, Turkey, and Slovakia.
Below you will find a directory of foreign universities and reviews from students who participated in an exchange, or in direct enrollment.
In a Direct Enrollment program, students have the option of applying directly to the university they wish to attend abroad. Students can go for either one or two semesters and apply using that university's application process listed for international students. Sometimes these students are called Visiting Students, Guest Students or Free Movers. At the foreign university, they will be supported by the university's office of international students, housed with other international students and have the opportunity not only to immerse in a foreign culture, but to do so with students from all over the world.
In an Exchange, you attend a foreign university and a foreign student attends your home university, a student swap for a semester or year. Your university will handle the details of the exchange, you just need to find the ideal foreign university. Hopefully the listings and reviews below can help you down that path. You will need to contact your university's study abroad department or your academic advisor for details on the exchange because the number of valid/active exchange partners may be very limited.
Study Abroad with Direct Enrollment/Exchange
"I learned to be on my own, to become independent from my parents and to finally do everything I have been wanting to do. I learned that although it is very comforting to be alone at times, it's more meaningful when you are experiencing something new with someone else. It was worth every single penny and every single minute to ..."
Melissa Pena SUNY - Fashion Institute of Technology
"It was definitely worth while. I had opportunities I never would've had if I didn't go abroad. I got to experience and see cultures in ways I never would've imagined. I learned a lot about other people and interacting with them, as well as cultural boundaries."

"I learned about a country that I have always wanted to visit and got to meet so many amazing people, both locals and people that were in the program with me"

"The knowledge I acquired of French language and culture cannot be quantified. I learned so much about France, the world, languages, communication, music, movies, food, architecture. I really got to see how different people are different. I lived with a French person and I talked to French people in the street and I really learne..."

"The people on the course were amazing!! The best part of the trip by far is the company. You wouldn't think that a month would cause you to make such good friends, but its just long enough for leaving to be painful. Cheapest month long holiday by far (£770)."
A student University of Bath
"It was so worthwhile. You learn about other cultures, your own independence and as cliche as it sounds haha; about yourself like never before. You really gain perspectives of other cultures and your own cultural identity when abroad too, unlike what you ever could while at home."

"I kept a notebook of things I witnessed that occurred to me as either strange or unique manifestations of Korean culture, since that was what I came there to study. I managed to fill 1 1/2 little notebooks and these are important keepsakes for me. I also learned that my personality fits well within Asian society, helping me make..."
